Trade of a Lifetime (Trade Wind Book 1) Kindle Edition
A forbidden arrangement destroys their defenses, their plans—and builds more than they dreamed.
Choosing spinsterhood over a stifling marriage, Lady Clara Chadbourne covertly applies herself to pursuits no lady ought to ponder. Surreptitiously running a London charity, she learns more about life than she should and makes friends she shouldn’t. Oh, she longs for a family, but what husband would accept—nay, embrace—her penchant for ardent piano pieces or her work with ladybirds?
James Robertson has built a commercial empire—and a fortress around his heart. He has no use or patience for aristocrats, not with their disdain for his uncouth muscles and humble Scottish origins. The worst of the lot? His insufferable business enemy, the Earl of Anterleigh. Barging into the Earl’s residence for a confrontation, it’s James who is knocked askew…by meeting his rival’s sister. Lady Clara is opinionated. Delectable. Off-limits.
Their chance encounter sparks an awakening, but Clara must refuse the liaison James proposes. It’s impossible…irresistible. With promises of secrecy and no sentimental entanglement, they indulge a passion that musses more than the bedsheets.
Their arrangement will end in devastation...or in the trade of a lifetime.
Don't miss James and Clara's sequel, Love Unbound.

As the story unfolded and the characters were fleshed out, their growing strength saved me from giving this offering three stars. Since I enjoy character driven tales with strong lead characters, I was able to finish this book. I even considered the cute ending and epilogue to be smile worthy.
Content 411: In addition to secular and religious swearing, this book also contains one “f” vulgarity and several explicitly graphic sex scenes.

I also got this ebook from Amazon 📚with KU.
This was an amazing story of the rapidly changing times in Britain, and how the peerage needed to change, too, or crumble and be lost to the pages of history.
